The swimming season is over but the life saving equipment remains.

These wacky ducks, geese and swans have lost their knowledge of flying further south for the winter. Some will survive and some will not.

Goggle is making me feel like Patrick McGoohan (Number Six) on the TV show The Prisoner. You may have noticed when leaving a comment on a Goggle Blogger web page you are asked "Please prove you're not a robot". (Word Verification) This is to let Goggle know that I AM NOT A ROBOT! I am alive and breathing! TexWisGirl has a solution for you here. You can find a fix here.

Do You Get My Drift


It was a bright sunny day with a strong easterly wind causing snow to drift over the road.
If you look very carefully you can see a skein of geese flying with the wind.

You Have Mail


Since its opening in 1914 Port Perry’s Post Office has stood as a landmark for 100 years. The turret clock was ordered from J. Smith and Sons of the Midland Clock Works in Derby, England, and an 800-pound iron bell from John Taylor Bellfounders in Loughborough, England. The clock, which is known to be temperamental at best, requires weekly tuning and upkeep. Due to the cost of the maintenance, the cast iron bell no longer tolls from its perch 50 feet over downtown Port Perry, though the mechanism still ticks away as it has for over 100 years.

Vagabond


Photographed in Saint Andrews, New Brunswick on August 28. This dog reminds me of Tramp, from the movie "Lady And the Tramp". He was a wanderer going where ever he wanted... exploring every nook and cranny. He was in complete control and seemed know what he was doing.

Slugging It Out


It was a chilly morning when I came across this guy struggling along the sidewalk. Most slugs do not hibernate over winter but die off in the autumn. I don't think this one will last to the end of the day.
